Who the hell freaks out when Kobe drops 30? ... that is standard Kobe. You may as well get excited over him tying his shoe laces.

"If you could stop all the players that get publicized and all the players that the NBA likes and all the players, you know, the players that win the MVP's, you know, for their offense. And some of them, you know, play pretty good defense too. But some of them, you know, they like "this guy he can shoot, he can score, he can dunk." and I want to be the one to stop all those guys, you know, and just kinda spoil the whole party." - Ron Artest

You seriously need to get over this Spanish player inferiority complex. Pau was an all-star this year. He was just named WC player of the month in February. What more do you want? Should everyone get on their hands and knees and worship him? Maybe he doesn't get all the credit he deserves, but he definitely gets tons of love.

It's sad when people care more about the name on the back of the jersey, instead of the name on the front of the jersey.

I want Pau to not let someone like Kendrick Perkins knock him all over the place in a seven-game series. I'm still not convinced a frontcourt of Lamar and Pau can scrap with KG and Perk. When you add a not-so-in-game-shape Andrew Bynum to the mix, whom I think was overrated the majority of the season, the Lakers will not be at a full 100%. We'll see how Bynum's condition will be if he comes back. De Ja Vu? A worst-case scenario is that Andrew doesn't return this year, which is possible.
